Our mission

To enrich the practice of counselling and psychotherapy

We aim to do this by providing counselling practitioners with the tools, resources, and training they need to run an ethical and sustainable practice.

We strive to help therapists not just survive but thrive, and be free to focus on their most important work: making a difference in the lives of those facing mental and emotional challenges.

Our values

Connection, service, passion

These three core values run through how we behave towards each other, our clients and our customers:

  • We listen, trying to understand without judgement.
  • We are who we say we are, and are always honest even when 
this is hard.
  • We do what is right, not what is easy, and we never compromise our values.
  • We ask for help and give help, supporting each other to be our best selves.
  • We do what we say we will.

Our Story

Founded in 2015

What started as a simple idea in a classroom has grown into a thriving community for counselling students and professionals. Born from a moment of inspiration (and a well-timed cup of tea), Counselling Tutor was created to make complex counselling concepts clear and accessible. Over the years, it has grown beyond YouTube videos to offer courses, resources, and support to learners around the world.
